What will I be doing as an apprentice?:
A Coating Operator in the manufacturing industry is a critical role focused on applying coatings to various manufactured products. These coatings might be protective, decorative, or functional, and are added during different stages of production. The function of Coating Operators is essential for ensuring product durability, resistance, and compliance with industry standards. Operating within a precise and regulated environment, they must accurately follow formulated procedures and maintain a high standard of safety and cleanliness.
The main duties of a Coating Operator include preparing coatings, setting up and operating coating equipment, and ensuring the quality control of finished products. Operators are also responsible for maintaining the equipment, performing regular checks and troubleshooting any issues that arise during the coating process. Accurate record-keeping and adherence to safety protocols are essential tasks that contribute to the operational efficiency and compliance of the manufacturing facility:
Prepare surfaces by cleaning and applying adhesives or other preparations required before coating.
Select, mix, and prepare the coating substances based on specific job requirements.
Set up spray guns.
Monitor the application process to ensure even distribution of coatings.
Conduct quality assurance tests to verify thickness, adherence, and consistency of the coat.
Maintain a clean and organized work environment to comply with health and safety regulations.
Record process parameters and results accurately in the production logs for quality control purposes.
Identify and troubleshoot process or equipment problems to minimize downtime and waste.
About you
This is a very hands on and practical role so you should be willing to get stuck in and learn from the offset!
You’ll enjoy working in a repetitive environment, where attention to detail and focus are the keys to success! You’ll be adaptable, and somebody who copes well with change in a fast-moving environment.
The ability to think on your feet and communicate with all people effectively is crucial due to the environment and nature of the role - you will have good health and safety awareness and be able to work towards strict health and safety guidelines.
We’re seeking somebody who loves to be busy and enjoys the practical side of working. If you currently hold some experience of working with tools and technical equipment, this is the perfect opportunity for you!
Eligibility
While we never want to hinder your job application process with obstacles, there are some minimum requirements you’ll need to meet in order to do an apprenticeship, these are rules set by the UK Government.
You’ll need to be over 17, not in full time education, have lived in the UK for 3 years, and have the right to work in the UK.
If you don’t quite meet these minimum requirements yet, let us know you’re interested here and we’ll get in touch to discuss this further with you.
